For goodness sake get shot of those stupid mics if you are going to video there are plenty of alternatives that din't look so ugly.

Great to see those faces and hear their TT story. Thank you!

Kerry Hennigan

This was wonderful! It was great to see Brigid and Raysan again, and especially to hear about their work in NZ archaeology. Bravo.

That idiot Chris

I've somehow completely missed the podcast before. Is there a patreon feed we can add to apps at all?

JUDITH COOKE

Lovely to catch up with Brigid and Raysan and share their reminiscences of some of the great Time Team episodes.

Mary Lu

Thank you! It’s enjoyable to hear about the many aspects of archaeology that you bring up in these podcasts. It’s a tremendous addition to all the other Time Team presentations.

Tim Walker

Oh yes, get the Time Team babies rowing the Sutton Hoo ship!

Richard Abbott

I have a question: Growing up I was fascinated by the layers of occupation at Vindolanda. What is the location you have dug that has had the most separate overlapping layers of occupation ?

Eggs Ackley

Wonderful to catch up with our favorite Kiwis. “We have two teenage daughters. our best friend is VISA.”: profound! 🤭👍

Andrew Lamb

Great to see two members of early Time Team still being part of the family ⚔️😎👍👋

Sue Fidler

Seeing Raysan brought up a question.. It's a bit of a whinge actually. I have watched every team countless times, and I think one of the features that really added value to the whole was the illustrations of the 'probable' structures uncovered, be it Roman villa or neolithic tunnel. Whether it was Victor's wonderful sketches and cartoons or Sue's then Raysan's wonderful computer renditions, they really added a huge amount in letting us visualise the architecture. And yet with all the clever technology and computer whizz kids now on the modern version, you dont create those visuals for us. You have 3D interactive renditions of finds in a virtual library and even VR, but nobody sits and recreates an image of the structures. Is there a reason, has it gone out of fashion? becuase I, for one, really miss being able to see a visual rendition of what was found.

Eggs Ackley

I have a suggestion for the TT family across all their media platforms. Find a thesaurus and use it to replace the word “amazing.” In the early 19th century, archaeologists borrowed the Latin word thesaurus to denote an ancient treasury, such as that in a temple. Soon after, the word was metaphorically applied to a book containing a treasury of words or information about a particular field. In 1852, the English scholar Peter Mark Roget published his Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases, in which he listed a treasury of semantically related words organized into numerous categories. This work led to the common acceptance of the term thesaurus to refer to "a book of words and their synonyms." The word developed another meaning in the 1950s, when thesaurus began being used in the field of word processing to refer to a list of related terms used for indexing and retrieval.

Leanne

Could the Time Team do a special in New Zealand?

Peter Farrington

It was great to see Brigid and Raysan again, Brigid should not be embarrassed about some of the outfits she wore, they were very much appreciated by a very many of us who watched TT in the early days, she was and still is much nicer to look at than say John Gator. A great update from two lovely people.

Garry Matthews

Great one as normal, the question I have is why don’t we see more of the world input to other countries and how this interacts to where we are now

Lorna Dryden

It would be wonderful to see the kids of the time team crew do the rowing on the reconstructed ship!!

Fiona D

Question: what is the difference between coring and what Naomi does? How do they relate?

Conan Mills

Not so much a question, but a comment on soil matrix that is good for preservation. Here in Louisiana in the US, our soil is far too acidic for preservation of organic materials. However, occasionally we run into shell middens that offer fantastic preservation. These middens preserve 1000+ year old turtle shell, fish vertebrae, and nut shells.

Donna Oldenkamp

I concur. My hearing isn’t the best, so I do read lips. The accents are bad enough (California girl here). Lapel mics would be greatly appreciated.

Michael Crouch

Another great podcast, I love listening to Martin and Helen. I have a question: Do archaeologists ever look for clues in language? I read that the Spanish word carro is derived from the Celtic language and referred to a wooden cart or chariot. In English it became the word, car. Someone who built or repaired carts and chariots was called a carpentero which became our word for a woodworker, a carpenter. Does tracing words like these help build a picture of how cultures moved and mixed?

Beth Marriott

Was so great hearing Brigid talk about her experiences, especially because i also live in New Zealand and it feels like the archaeology scene here is very sparse!

Frances Nation

I guess that the podcast itself is not here on Patreon? I enjoyed the interview with Brigid and Raysan, but cannot find the Rachel Pope/Iron Age women part of it.

Antony Chapman

That podcast with Brigid and Raysan was far and away the best so far. Fascinating. Keep it up!

Martyn Williams

Hi Frances, just click the link provided under the video and you'll be able to hear the whole podcast.

Wessex-Wyvern

I wonder if there might have been more female leaders in Iron Age Britain than we know about? The only two that I recall hearing about are Boudicca and Cartimandua. We seem to have relatively few names for even male tribal leaders of that time, so why should we be so surprised at female leaders when for most of the time we have no idea who the leaders were, only what the Romans tell us.

Frances Nation

Thanks! I did eventually figure that out. I was confused because 1) the link took me to Spotify, which I don't use and 2) I could see a video right there! Sorry about that.

Martyn Williams

Hi Chris, the podcast is available from most podcast providers, such as Spotify and Apple Podcasts. You can subscribe to it there to be notified of new episodes.

Martyn Williams

Thanks Antony! Hopefully you enjoyed the other elements of that episode too

Another observation on British Roman buildings with stairs. Given the design of tall lofty spaces in Mediterranean buildings assisting with keeping buildings cool I would have thought that in cold and wet Britain this would be counterintuative and perhaps lower/single storey spaces would retain the heat better and therfore need no stairs. Standing in the recreation of the double height Roman buildings at Arbeia in South Shields in Winter was pretty freezing and any heat would be lost up in the roofspace. Were all these Roman buildings being built around Britain all following the Mediterranean design ideas regardless of the local climate?

Rebecca Duncan

Please tell me how i can see that episode. Thank you.

Carole Cox

Good to see Bridget and Raysan again! Interesting to hear how your journeys with TT started. All so talented and energetic. Always good to see Helen as well. My favorite dig was/ is Trouble With Temples. I would love to hear your recollection of that. Oh! The braid! The Oacum! Good stuff!

Ruth Farrimond

I love a good romance that works out! You mentioned other TT couples - who?! 😍

Martyn Williams

What an interesting question! Thanks so much for commenting. I think the stairs debate will keep us going for some time and this adds an extra level to things!

Shannon G

What a delight to hear Brigid again, she was always a highlight of the episodes she had input in. It was great to hear of her and Raysan’s romance. Hopefully we do meet their daughters when the “ship” is launched. It would be great if your podcast continued to have previous team appearances to catch up (Phil, Francis, Raksha…)

Shelby

I think it's time you started pulling together a TT special on this issue, get it out of the podcast, and on to screen!

Jill Bray - Author

I belive Steve Breeze and Sue had a baby as well. Didn't they bring her onto the digs? I seem to remember an episode showing her asleep in her carry cot.

Sue Fidler

yes sue brought the baby at least once, she was in a carry cot under sues desk

Jakub Jůzl

It was also more of a norm to dress like that in the early 2000s than it is now, I think. Never made me doubt her expertise though, people who think that are dumb.

Jakub Jůzl

I always saw the video version as more of a bonus, but if TT Podcast is going in that direction, it makes sense. That said, the way you worded it comes off a bit rude.
